If you used a VPN to sign up for YouTube Premium at a cheaper rate, your account might get canceled by YouTube.
Depending on how much time you spend on the most popular video-sharing site in the world, a YouTube Premium subscription could be a worthwhile purchase. That said, the $13.99 price tag in the US is a touch steep, which is why some people are using VPNs to take advantage of the service’s regional pricing by signing up after changing their location.
While YouTube Premium costs $13.99 a month in the US, it’s far cheaper in other countries. For instance, a subscription costs just 869 ARS in Argentina, which is less than $1 USD. In India, it’s only 129 INR ($1.54), and in Ukraine, it’s 99 UAH ($2.44).
It’s a clever workaround, but one that YouTube has seemingly started cracking down on.
